#Chinese militarization of the supply chain dependence and predictable armtwisting of #Japan !!

AFP: According to a report yesterday by the Financial Times, Japan is months away from running out of supplies of the critical rare earth yttrium, and has asked the United States for help with encouraging China to ease related export controls. Does the foreign ministry have comments on this?

Mao Ning: China implements export controls on Japan in accordance with the laws and regulations. The aim is to thwart Japan’s remilitarization and attempt to possess nuclear weapons. China’s position of keeping the global industrial and supply chains of critical minerals safe and stable has not changed. All parties have the responsibility to play a constructive role to this end.

From flawed analysis to pure polemics, the discourse on #India -#US relations has experienced many pitfalls. Yet @StimsonCenter's Yun Sun sets a new low.

Her WOTR piece stands as a remarkably crooked and skewed text that heavily leans into #Beijing 's propaganda.

Norwegian soldiers discovered that Chinese-owned Volvo rental cars recorded and stored videos during a major military exercise in Oslo from September 14–18.

The footage captured soldiers entering and leaving vehicles, their movements, locations and even security codes used to access restricted areas.

Despite the discovery, the military continued using the cars due to a lack of alternatives.
